About
Pedro Campuzano-Jost is a leading atmospheric chemist whose research focuses on the microphysical, chemical, and optical properties of ambient aerosols, particularly in remote and understudied regions of the globe. His most impactful work stems from the NASA Atmospheric Tomography Mission (ATom), where he contributed to global-scale in situ measurements of aerosol properties during flights spanning from the high Arctic to the Southern Ocean. This flagship study, published in 2021 and accumulating over 65 citations, provides a foundational dataset for understanding aerosol distributions and their climatic effects in the pristine remote atmosphere. Campuzano-Jost has also advanced the modeling community through a 2023 paper that parameterizes the size of organic and secondary inorganic aerosols, enabling more efficient and accurate representation of aerosol optical properties in global models. His work bridges the gap between detailed field observations and large-scale atmospheric simulations, directly supporting improvements in climate and air quality models. By combining rigorous airborne measurements with innovative parameterization techniques, Campuzano-Jost has established himself as a key contributor to our understanding of how aerosols influence Earth’s radiation budget and remote atmospheric composition.
